I just walked past a person I was nearly married to, traveled the entire world with, lived with for six years. All we said was ‘hi’ in a really polite manner as we passed. 😂😂 HOW FUCKING STRANGE IS LIFE.
No matter how long you have lived in London and no matter how many times you have fucked yourself up in Soho, you will NEVER know the order of Frith Street, Dean Street or Greek Street.
used my Student card (cough) in Top Man and she proceeded to quiz me about what I’m studying. And do you know what came out of my mouth? NURSING. Not a clue why I said that. BUT. Guess what SHES studying?! NURSING. THESE situations are why it’s useful to have a Degree in Acting.
I’d just like to be very clear that the ONLY reason
@ThatStephParry
was able to jump from 42nd Street to Mamma Mia last night was because of ME. It’s because I am her singing teacher. ME. It’s because of ME. so I suggest everyone STOPS giving her praise and praises ME. MEEE
I find it so odd when normal general public don’t put kisses on their texts and then I remind myself ‘oh! Of course! This isn’t a Actor. He’s just the plumber arranging a time to come and fix the washing machine’.
Just heard someone on the tube say ‘I’m gonna try get a session with Matt Shaw but it’s almost impossible. apparently he talks really quickly’ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Guys. Stop pretending you are going to have a great time in Panto. We’ve all been there. And we all know that you are going to be hating your life and every fucking irritating child by show 9...
Lady on the tube casually eating a whole battenburg cake. Just taking bites out of it. Like it’s an Apple. I will not rest until she’s signed to one of London’s top Agents.
Musical Directors. You can not have a legit that shows belt no vibrato classical no scoop song classical modern 1920s rock song.
If you are going to be that specific, please just tell them what to sing.
☺️
Do you think Gus the theatre cat ever gets pissed off that they all shorten his name from ‘Asparagus’ to ‘Gus’ ‘cause they think it’s ‘such a fuss’ to call him by his real name? Think he’s ever like ‘Jennyenydots. I don’t shorten your fucking name to ‘dots’ so don’t shorten mine’
...and I’ve made comments before that I’ve smiled at a Woman and she hasn’t smiled back and that I thought she was fucking rude and now I totally understand why! To me I was just smiling to be polite but to her, I was a 6 foot big stranger who could have tried anything. 😩
I think this whole debate about mobile phones is far less about the actors. Actors are paid to do a job. They can just get on with it. It’s more about fucking off other audience members who have also paid a lot to watch a show and don’t want to be distracted. So STOP.
Well I have to say, whilst you were all watching the ball thing, I was having a lovely time in Asda. It was like there had been a virus that had taken everybody out but a select few. We were all chatting and smiling and buying. Oh, the joy.
I have never worked at arts Ed. This is odd as I appear to be running a non official post graduate course in private singing for most of their grads. 😂😂😂
People who follow loads of people to get them to follow you back for you to then delete loads of people to make yourself look popular are SAD AS FUCK and I really hope you look at yourself long and hard and realise what a sad fuck you truly are.
Well. I am OFFICIALLY A LORD. Name change and EVERYTHING. My lovely
@Seedtime18
got me a LORDSHIP! How has it taken this long to become a lord?!!!!! How?!!!! My FAVE present EVER. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
People need to stop with this ‘you are enough’ crap. YES. You ARE enough. But, sometimes you also have to do a clean triple pirouette on both sides and be able to sing a top B flat on an E vowel as well.
I’ve just had the most embarrassing moment of my adult life.
I saw someone who I thought was Michael James Stewart. I looked at them. They gave me a ‘what?!’ To which I replied ‘you fucking cunt. Don’t ‘what’ me boy’’
It wasn’t Michael Stewart.
Dead.
There is a new surcharge. The highest I’ve EVER implemented. Hamilton. IN GERMAN. Yes. You heard me. HAMILTON. IN GERMAN. surcharge for lyrical numbers 40%. Surcharge for any of the Rap Numbers 82%. Yes. You fucking heard me. EIGHTY TWO GERMAN ANGELA MERKELL PERCENT.
Dance Attic of full of people who are literally parodies of themselves today. Producers being producy. Choreographers being choreographyish. Actors being acty. And there’s me just being my normal asshole self.
SINGING WORKSHOP for 1st years, 2nd years, 3rd years and recent graduates. So. I’m inundated with recent graduates who I can’t ever fit in, so I’m going to hold two day long workshops on 5th and 6th MAY. Message me if you want more details. Please retweet or tag. X
I think it’s a most excellent thing for a show to cast based on talent as apposed to if the general public know who they are. Congrats
@jacyarrow
!!! More of this!!!!
From Tuesday 30th, I shall only be accepting new clients who have seen both part 1 and part 2 of

please email your screenshot of your ticket stub with your initial email. Best, Matt.
Older people wondering why the 20 somethings find things so hard as they sit in their four bedroomed properties that they purchased for thirty seven thousand pounds…
Peeps. learn the (BIG) Difference between
A) realising that life is hard, gets you down, but you need to get the fuck on with it like the rest of us and stop being a self indulgent little twat
And
b) that you have a mental health issue.
They really are very different things.
Isn’t it a shame that only people of a certain age will know the scintillating eroticism of sneakily watching EuroTrash on your 16 inch TV in your bedroom.
I WANT THE DISTRICT LINE DEAD. I WANT IT FUCKING DEAD. EVERY TRAIN. EVERY TRACK. EVERY LEAF ON THE LINE. EVERY STATION. EVERY DRIVER. EVERYTHING THATS GREEN. EVERY SIGNAL. EVERY DOOR.EVERY TICKET MACHINE. EVERY COMMUTER.EVERY TUNNEL.EVERY WINDOW. ALL DEAD. I. WANT. IT. ALL. DEAD.
As someone who has done one of these Musicals filmed live for TV, I just wanna say it’s SO much harder then it looks to do. I haven’t seen Rent live but I really do feel for them. It’s fucking hard. (And I’m a cunt so you know I mean business if I’m being nice!)
People earning 90 thousand a year who own their houses, fucked up the NHS, kept their jobs during lockdown and can afford to buy food slamming people on 18 thousand a year who don’t own houses, didn’t fuck up the NHS and can’t afford to buy food FUCK OFF.
I didn’t think I’d have to get out ‘Hamilton Female Audition Pack’ quite this early in the year, but, it has, in fact, come out SIX times already. I suspect I’m going to hear how she’s a girl in a world in which her only plan is to marry rich another 6795 times this year....
Oh god. I remember that sinking feeling on Boxing Day right about now knowing I had to go and fucking MD 2 shows. I haven’t done it for 7 years and it still haunts me. It was worse than that ‘sunday’ feeling as a 13 year old. Sending love to all you Panto bitches.
Well
@RuthlessMusical
is just wonderful. All go see. Act 2 is especially gorgeous. These are the kinds of shows Actors are always moaning there isn’t enough of - so go to the theatre, support it and then there will be more producers willing to produce this kind of work.
When I say I’m going out out, I go out out. I don’t fuck around. But last night, I think I went out out OUT. A new level of outness. I feel like my insides have burnt and that I have shaved six years off my life.
Yes. And Soap Opera Actors are also paid to learn if. And it tends to be their ONLY Job at the time giving them plenty of TIME to learn it. Sadly, Actors tend to have other jobs that means they sometimes have slightly less time than the paid soap opera Actor.
What a fascinating piece of theatre
@WastedMusical
is. Excellent direction and musical direction. EVERYONE ALWAYS MOANS ABOUT THE FACT WE DONT HAVE ENOUGH NEW MUSICAL THEATRE, SO, HERE IS A NEW BRITISH MUSICAL. BOOK NOW.
I am SO THRILLED about all the love for
@sixthemusical
and SO proud of my Wendy and Andy for producing it. They have been workingTIRELESSLY for the past 10 years. Please all book book book book book NOW!
Next week, there will be a surcharge for the Female audition pack of Pretty Woman. Anyone wishing to bring this material will pay an additional £16 supplement and may only sing it once.
Best,
Matthew.
I’m going to start doing a lottery for lessons. It can be a theatrical experience with bunting and confetti a smoke machine and a silver burst Piro at the end
I really think Kiera Knightley should have more to worry about than if her daughter watches sexist Disney films. One day, that poor child is going to have to watch her mothers Acting on screen and that will fuck her up indefinitely.
Stupid. Fucking. Bitch.
Who keeps on giving my number out to old ladies called Susan who ‘have always loved singing and want to get better for their church choir’. It’s probably my bloody Mother! STOP THIS IMMEDIATELY.
I have been groped totally inappropriately by Women in the past BUT the big difference is that I have never walked down the street in fear that a Woman was going to attack me for just walking down the street. I think that’s the big difference that we need to understand.
The surcharge today is ANYTHING. wanna sing a scale? 2.7 surcharge. Want me to play the piano? 1.9 surcharge. Wanna knock on my door? 1.4 surcharge. Wanna fucking look at me? 3.5 surcharge. And anyone who overbreathes? £15 on the spot fine. Foul. Mood.
BACK TO THE FUTURE MUSICAL 1.9 surcharge to sing material sent from the show and a 1.7 Surcharge to sing the 2 rock pop numbers for the show. Best, Ubermatt.
